Abstract :
Grading is a frequently discussed and contentious issue. There are several views on how best to do grading and deciding how to grade students who participate in a joint international project-oriented course is far from trivial. This paper examines some in-situ observations and concerns, here referred to as myths, which arose during the project. Some statistical information extracted from the assessment data is used to examine the truth and relevance of these myths
